My brief observation of Professor Toyin Falola is that he is a very humble human being. When a humble person is achieving great things, I always feel I am part of his or her success.

CONGRATULATIONS.

I am not surprised and l will never be because Professor Toyin Falola is a rare "iwin" in a human body. His way of operating is too enormous and constantly active and impactive.

Think of his productive global movements, rich educational or academic  contributions, philanthropic ventures and ever-growing contacts and networks. It is not my habit to sing-praise people, but when someone has an exceptional ability, dynamic engineering capacity, and a great, adorable image.

l do recognize an individual and say so in the public  even if l do not wine and dine with the person. If saying that about Professor Falola means doing praise-singing for him, then l have become an accurate Senegambia griot .

My congratulatory message to the super, erudite professor and chief historian, philanthropist, mentor, baba Toyin Falola, the giant that walks his ways through like an elephant and a lion. Iwin gidi ni yín o, Professor Falola. More great awards and accomplishments!
